Setting up a Cloud Center of Excellence can be quite challenging for organizations. Getting the right processes in place to keep the cloud-spent under control without choking the organizations innovative capabilities requires a new way of thinking. Traditional governance is just not going to cut it. During this event we will dive into the lessons learned from organization that have set-up their Cloud CoE and take you more into detail on how to properly keep your cloud under control.

On Thursday November 16th, we will host this event in Amsterdam. Restaurant Dauphine will be the place to be, as usual.
